The Linux Foundation announced the formation of the React Foundation at its Member Summit in Napa, California, with Meta transferring ownership of React, React Native, and related projects to the vendor-neutral governance body.<\/p>\n

The official announcement marks the conclusion of a transition process that began months earlier. React, React Native, and supporting projects including JSX are now hosted under LF Projects, LLC. The foundation launches with eight Platinum founding members: Amazon, Callstack, Expo, Huawei, Meta, Microsoft, Software Mansion, and Vercel. This structure moves the project away from corporate stewardship and into a collaborative environment. The Linux Foundation operates numerous other major open-source initiatives, and React now sits alongside Linux, Kubernetes, and PyTorch under this umbrella.<\/p>\n

He further explained the rationale behind the transition: \u201cBy establishing the React Foundation under the Linux Foundation, we are ensuring a strong, vibrant React for decades to come \u2014 guided by open governance and shared stewardship from the global community that builds with it every day.\u201d This leadership appointment bridges the project\u2019s history with its new governance model.<\/p>\n
